With such a car and such a cheer leader, there is no way you can't win the race!

Quoting Aenigma: Quoting Deli_kizin: Quoting Aenigma: What a nice day for NOT WORKING  . Anyone wanna swap lives for today? |
Yes me please! Then i could pass English with a 9 on my final list  |
Oooo yes!!!! The perfect swap ....and I could be young again  |
Can you believe this? We really must have swapped and I didn't notice it! I got 45 out of 51 points Well Aenigma did  And there were 11 texts of which one was about ATKINS DIET (can you believe it  ) and one about the environment, but i guess Aenigma didn't understand that one, as she made the mistakes in that one. Ohh and sis, I'm sorry for the wind I should;ve warned you, on my way to school tehre is always a tough wind, but the luckyt hing is, you have it in the back when you go home And I'm glad you didn't stick around too long, because i got quite scared of all those neighbours knocking at my (well, your) door!

Quoting sophie: Quoting Deli_kizin: I'm gonna jump on my very Dutch bike right now to get there! |
Can I swap a skateboard with that bike of yours? My daughter is asking for a new one these days. :-S |
We don't have to swap You can have it in 2 months. No way I am gonna cycle int he narrow streets of Izmir if i can walk there holding my man's hand
(btw, i understood why most of the turkish girls in Izmir prefer to wear sneakers instead of nice high pumps. But ohh, who wants to be pretty has to bear pain, so I'll stick to my own shoes and you can get the bike).
No wait. I know what we can swap it for I'm dying for the translation of 'Oi philoi' of Charis Alexiou

That's easy! 
But there are two songs from Haroula with a similar title. One is 'Oi philoi' and the other is 'oi filoi mou haramata'. The lyrics for the second one, are here . You' ll have to give me some time to translate the first one.
Meanwhile, can you start packing the bike?

And here is the translations of "Oi filoi".
The lyrics are written in the way that friends talk to eachother, so it's a bit difficult to translate them exactly, but they ll give you an idea of what Haroula is singing here.
Watch, watch your mouth baby
And most of all us who love you
You made two pals and wanna “eat them upâ€
For looking elsewhere as soon as you run away
We choose our friends
That’s why we don’t give them a hard time
We share our secrets (instead)
We also fell in love
But didn’t lose our minds
We didn’t “burn†(forget) our friends
We also fell in love
But didn’t lose our minds
We don’t “burn†our friends
Talk to us, talk to us, even if you don’t love us
Why are you hiding from us and from your own shadow
You made two pals and wanna “eat them upâ€
Be careful cause your turn might also come
Talk to us, talk to us, even if you don’t love us
Be careful cause your turn might also come
We choose our friends
That’s why we don’t give them a hard time
We share our secrets (instead)
We also fell in love
But didn’t lose our minds
We didn’t “burn†(forget) our friends
We also fell in love
But didn’t kill ourselves
We don’t “burn†our friends
